Default RE: ThunderTiger Rare Bear

well, just as suspected, we pulled that wing that failed out of the garbage can today and took a look at the glue joints.

yep, no surprises there

NO GLUE CONTACT BETWEEN 3 WING RIBS AND BOTTOM SHEETING. the top glue joints were very marginal.

YahOOOOOOOooOOoOOOOOOoOoOooooOOOOOoOOOOOoooOooOOOO OOOOO!!!!!!!!!

WAY TO GO THUNDER TIGER!

====================


yo guys who are building this not only need to worry about the horizontal stabilizer but ya better worry about the integrity of the wing as well.

who holds the record for number of flights before crashing on this p.o.s. anyway?
(this guy had 15 with a 2-stroke within the recommended engine rating range)
